Create a speed check for the server. When players are going faster then the stated speed kick them to the login server. Add an ignore for the staff members. Just a thought... not sure if you can do that.

That is but a bandaid fix to a much large problem.

This is true but... until Stefan does something to fix the issue you might as well use the bandaid.

This problem has been here for a long time. I remember scripting a little notifier for Streety when he was still managing UN.

Also speed checks are in use on many servers, but it can be somewhat unreliable at times, and downright useless if you have absolutely any method of traveling faster(like a car or horse).

Valid point... regardless there should be some type of security feature added to the servers/clients what ever needs to be done. I see multiple bans daily simply due to these people using these third party programs. It gets a bit tedious after so long.

Wow. Yeah I would server warp them or like we did back in the days on N-Pulse there was a level we would warp them to filled with a bunch of bad scripts that crashed them.
